I discovered Stephan Talty through his book "The Black Hand" about the proto-Mafia crime organization that terrorized the Italian community of New York in the early 1900's.
And I was super pleased to find out that he also wrote a book about Henry Morgan, "Empire of Blue Water", as well as co-wrote "A Captain's Duty" with Richard Phillips aka Captain Phillips. Yep, the guy from the movie.
In this episode:
- Henry Morgan's lasting legacy and character
- The process of reliving his capture by Somali pirates with Richard Phillips
- How Stephan manages to write so many books
- The Black Hand as the precursor to the Mafia and Joe Petrosino as an Italian hero.
Under The Crossbones is a podcast all about pirate culture. Your host Phil Johnson (comedian, musician, and pirate geek) interviews the most interesting people in the pirate subculture: Actors, Authors, Historians, Musicians, Artists, Festival Founders, Clothing and Prop Designers, Treasure Hunters, Archaeologists, and more.
